Johanna Schiavoni has been recognized as one of San Diego’s top appellate attorneys, with her selection to the San Diego “Super Lawyers” list for 2015. Only 5% of attorneys are recognized with this honor, and only after a rigorous selection process that identifies the area’s top attorneys. The issue of San Diego Super Lawyers will be published in January 2015.
Before an audience from the San Diego Defense Lawyers association, Johanna Schiavoni served as an expert panelist discussing strategic considerations in preparing for an appeal. Her presentation addressed state and federal appellate courts’ typical timeline from filing of notice of appeal to decision, venue considerations, fees and costs, posting an appeal bond and stays of a judgment, critical appeal deadlines, issue analysis and selection in evaluating the strength of an appeal, key standards of review, desired outcomes, publicity considerations, and direct appeals versus writ petitions.
Johanna Schiavoni was selected as a finalist for San Diego Business Journal’s 2014 “Women Who Mean Business” award, which recognizes dynamic women business leaders who have contributed significantly to San Diego’s businesses.
